I am so glad that I got to spend my first 2 days in Bangkok at Evan's homestay. It was right on a sunny street, full of food to try, next to MRT and people of all sorts. Evan had a brochure he printed and laminated that had tips and information on how to get around the city like a local ( encouraged me to get on my first ever motorbike ride) and how much to expect to pay. Every thing was also clean and smelled good. Towels were provided as well as hot water and wifi, which seems to not be so common here in Thailand I have found! Definitely recommend 100 percent. You will not regret it!
